A solar car is a solar vehicle used for land transport. Solar cars combine technology typically used in the aerospace‚ bicycle‚alternative energy and automotive industries. The design of a solar vehicle is severely limited by the amount of energy input into the car. Most solar cars have been built for the purpose of solar car races. Exceptions include solar-powered cars and utility vehicles. Solar cars are often fitted with gauges as seen in conventional cars. To keep the car running smoothly‚

Physics HL Aspects of Physics Case Study: Amusement Parks On the 26th of February‚ 2011 our class went on a field trip in order to analyse the aspects of physics present in amusement parks. I chose two aspects based on my favourite rides: ‘Kaboom’ (which works based on free-fall) and the roller coaster. The Physics of Roller Coasters How does a Roller Coaster work? Roller coasters have no engines (although many still tend to think they do) and are thus not propelled around the

Extension Science-Construction Challenge Aim: To design and build a car out of recycled materials that can travel further than 5 meters determined with different front wheel sizes. Hypothesis: Using wheels that are light weight and made of plastic will allow our mousetrap car which is propelled by the force of the mousetrap being set off to travel further than 5 metres. Materials: • Mouse Trap • Screws • Washers • “r” clips • 2x Meccano wheels • 2x CD’s • Small white wheels • Small black wheels

Cars may be classified by a number of different criteria and objectives. However‚ comprehensive classification is elusive‚ because a vehicle may fit into multiple categories‚ or not completely satisfy the requirements for anyone‚ but certain categories are for racers who like high performance vehicles. These categories are muscle cars‚ tuner cars‚ and exotic cars. Muscle cars are usually referred to as a variety of high-performance automobiles. Its any group of American-made 2-door sports coupes

Roller coaster rides involve a great deal of physics. The ride often begins with a chain and motor which exerts a force on the train of cars to lift the train to the top of a tall hill. Once the cars are lifted to the top of the hill‚ gravity takes over and the rest of the ride works on energy transformation. There is no motor or engine that takes a train around the track. The law of physics is basically the engine of the train. At the top of the hill‚ the cars possess a large amount of potential energy

Today’s roller coasters appear to be tons of tubular metal intertwined around itself‚ but regardless of how big‚ fast‚ or gravity defying they are‚ they all use the same natural force – gravity. The more twisting‚ turning‚ flipping‚ and the faster a roller coaster goes‚ the more the coaster depends on the law of physics‚ not mechanics‚ to keep it moving. There is no onboard motor on roller coasters

nd of 1.Introduction The article “A Band of Brothers” is about the soldiers in the civil war and how they fought to defend their dignity. Being a soldier wasn’t enough to prove their devotion to the confederate or union army‚ they had to prove they were fierce in battle and fought for their pride. This article quotes stories from the civil war armies and how the soldiers would give up their lives in order to take their dignity and pride in fighting for their ideas. 2. Critical Summary The
